In Granada and enjoying this beautiful view while working my slides 😍

Looking forward to going to Granada to present two talks (one in Philosophy, one in Psychology) about our groups's work on trust in moral machines 🤖.

I'm trying to think about these photos of my roses as a reminder for persistence in my research. Even when things look like they are dormant and not fitting, there’s a season coming when it will all come together.

I think this is in some ways a nice metaphor for research in academia. Sometimes it can feel like there is no progress with paper rejections, dead-ends, problems in research infrastructure. But even when it feels like nothing is happening, things are happening in the background.

One day seemingly all at once, buds appear. The roses burst open all in one go and the garden is alive with different fragrances.

All winter, the garden looks bare. The branches seem brittle, the ground lifeless. It gets to February and it's so much work, with little apparent benefit. You do it, and the garden still looks lifeless and dull. But beneath the surface, progress is happening.

Every spring, my roses remind me about something important in academia that is easy to forget: the power of perseverance, patience, and the confidence that hard work will pay off in the end.
